I just love your videos, the two of you are quite a comedy team and that's what makes watching your videos enjoyable
That Was Pretty Quick Loading!!👍👊
Last! Reading the comments...I think about every question has been asked already. Looking forward to the roast , I mean the interview with Mike. Hope all is well. Tell the family hello. Be safe and have a day. God bless! Give Hunter a big hug for Trina and i.
Good 'ole Stanley, a great pup to know. Thanks for sharing your lives with us. God Bless.
love the channel, i enjoyed time doing this kind of stuff with my dad
It may be easier, but you are not counting the hand reworking. As a kid on vacation in Maine, we would gather around a fire on the beach of they family's lake shore property. It was the most peaceful and friendly few hours of my summers. I am glad your family does not face the domestic combat which marked much of my "home life" I have seen the Fire Ring. Full and flaming it cannot hold a candle to the warmth, joy, and comfort of a single Morgan Heart. God Bless you.
Hi Mike and Melissa,
Just checking the number of buckets, I counted 6 unless you cut away 1 during editing. Melissa, you have my vote for a swimming pool. :-)
I know you like to cut wood in any way , standing trees , on the ground , wood splitting , saw mill , I must have left out some , but I am still waiting for you to get back on the Mini Cabin , I enjoy watching you and Melissa work together .
Re watched and thanks ....
Mike, Great video! We do 4 Bucket loads, for our 1/2 cord Senior Cord Load🚜🪵👍🏼🇺🇸
Thanks for making this for me :) I asked the salesman to ask you! Thanks again Mike
Was that 6 buckets?
Good morning everyone have a great day everyone 😊👍👍🌞🌎💝
Good morning all, Phil here from Kansas City. Yesterday was chain sharpening day at the Stihl store. Have a Day.
New Sub. Searched for firewood stacking and was amazed by your work Mike. Then watched you splitting wood into your trailer in record time. Now watching this video. Im jealous of all your toys and attachments! Keep up the great work!
It's been nice to see you guys grow over the last few years. I wait for Mike to upload almost everyday. Keep doing your thing. We love you guys and wish you continued success
Good morning Morgan's, from here in east Tennessee! Loading firewood with the firewood bucket definitely would be the way to go! Melissa, that's one more load of sold firewood closer to building a pool! 😉👍
Get some conveyor belt in the bottom of the dump trailer. It will help it stop big dents in the bottom of the trailer. Just bolt it on the front of the trailer. It has really helped save my dump trailer.
Chris on In The Wood Yard
is looking for one of these
Nice firewood bucket. Loads up great
I like the way you roll your eyes
Hey Mike and Melissa, great video with the firewood bucket. You two work so well together, kinda like how smooth the original Whose On First routine, really a joy to watch and listen too. Keep up the good work and videos and thanks for sharing with us. Fred
Mike, so, you have a firewood bucket?? What don't you have buddy, i love it!! Do you have a pool bucket, Melissa will buy you one i'm sure. Jay from State College Pa.
🤣I love this comment - thank you
Melissa, don’t combine you and Mike on “Morgan’s Off the Leash” you both deserve and require your own separate episode.
I would like to see some photos of Mike during his high school years. Did he have hair then? Sports? What star did he drive then?
Melissa have Kate interview you. Mike or the girls won’t be straight enough and it would let us meet Kate more.
The firewood bucket time was really fast! I liked the interview with and about Hunter, wonderful young man you rock Hunter, good job.
Oh you just mentioned about Stanley have you done anything for his burial Spot yet ? I hope you do and let us see the finished area. He was a good dog .again stay safe Mike&Melissa Morgan
That lady is hilarious !!!
Hi Hunter, hope you have a great day.
hahahaha "I think they already know me..."
At least the YT persona.
You guys are radio celebrities now, heard the segment on the way home from work yesterday. Great Job!!!
You should have a skid steer machine with tracks, not wheels. They can turn on dime. Also then you could move the trailer closer to the pile.
I’ve been watching your TH-cam channel for a while now but today I’ve never laughed so hard watching your channel you need to give Melissa more free reign she is hilarious 😂🤣🤣
Enjoyed the video!
Haha the radio station Froggy is in my town of Meadville 90 miles north of pittsburg. Thats crazy I had no idea you guys were so close and Ive been following you for a while now.
One full cord out here in the SoCal mountains is 4’x4’x8’, tightly stacked, or 128 cu. ft. We get $275 - $375 per cord, delivered, depending on the season, of Black Oak, White Oak, or California Live Oak.
Exactly correct. In fact it's written into law here. But to expand on that the loose (ok, pun intended) rule of thumb is that the legal tightly stacked cord is 80% the volume of piled or dumped wood. Add 32 cubic feet in that case, which amounts to a total of 160 cubic feet or 6 cubic yards.
I'm not sure that counting buckets of a certain stated volume is accurate enough though unless it's been worked out empirically.
joe woodchuck, 6 cubic yards is162 cubic feet, calculated out. CA Weights and Measures defines a cord as “tightly stacked”. There are a lot of shysters that dupe the city folk with 100-110 cu ft cords. It weighs about the same, 1 ton Too hot and a Red Flag, extreme fire danger, day so it’s too hot to even think about cutting and splitting today. Gonna survey some dead oaks later today.
Souls of said have a day 👍🏴🇬🇧🆒👌🏼🇺🇸
Are you sure that you have a full cord in the trailer? You mentioned that stacked, a full cord fills up the trailer. You also mentioned that dumping wood into the totes is 1/2 the wood versus stacking the wood in the totes. I bet you have less than a full cord in that trailer.
It seems to me that you need a better test. Use the firewood bucket to bring over large quantities of wood, then manually stack the wood into the trailer. Once you have filled the trailer by stacking, then you will know how many buckets you need for your full cord. Then you can time how long it takes to fill the trailer with that number of buckets of firewood... and also see how full you need to fill the trailer when just dumping it into the trailer from the bucket.
Yes I'm sure, Melissa threw a stacked pile, one cord in trailer. Just tossed in
you can just add one or two buckets extra to make up for it.
They already know what a full cord looks like thrown into the trailer. Check out the earlier video.
@@thepotterer3726, I thought a cord was cut, split and stacked and measured 4 x 4 x 8 ? Not whole, unprocessed timber, at least around here that's what a cord is.
Wayne's way will tell you exactly how many buckets it will take and what it would look like in the trailer via the bucket.
@@thepotterer3726 Split, ready to use, and tightly stacked is the official definition here.
Hey Mike did you loose your glasses??? I am looking forward to your interview with Mike. Thank you for sharing your video with us. Hello Hunter. Ed
I'm sorry, I was a little distracted watching this video. What was Mike doing with the tractor??
@@johnsmick211 Well, all I can say is, concerning Mike's videos, Melissa is the icing on the cake.
Vinegar , throw vinegar on trailer floor to neutralize the lime on the floor and wash it off.
Not trying to make more work for you but now you have to dump the wood and stack it, not convinced it's 1 full cord! Just saying.
That is a good idea!
Great idea ....I think it’s more than a cord
The rule of thumb is 160 cubic feet (6 cubic yards) of loose firewood equals an official 128 cubic feet (1 cord) tightly stacked (80% of loose). It's therefore quite useful to know the volume of the truck or trailer used to haul it.
Just thinking here, a girl with her own tractorhoe could hunt up a few bin rings and a liner and put in a nice pool in a couple days once she finds the liner. Any Harvestores around the neighborhood Melissa? Just think how happy Mike will be with all the tool money you'll be saving. He'll probably even grab a shovel and pitch in. Word is Mike's good with a Texas teaspoon.
I did firewood with a couple of other firefighters on our off days - we averaged about $1.25 an hour from cutting the trees to delivering a full cord - stacked 😞 Enjoyed it but obviously not a good money maker... Truly enjoy all your videos ❣️ From Chesapeake VA.
I average 25-30/hr up here in Montana
Cents or dollars? 🤔
So, what is difference between this attachment and regular bucket?
Howdy Morgans, Mike 7 for 7 not bad... one minute cycle rate! Noticed you were not using the accelerator, perhaps you could elaborate in a future video as to why you do/do not use it. Have A Day! ;~)
It's a grate attachment... There's holes in it
What are Mike’s favourite meals for breakfast, lunch & dinner? What kind of coffee does he drink & how many cups per day? Have a day!
That tractor is too clean, get some Man Glitter on there! :)
Mike, you can buy glasses that turn into sunglasses when needed.
When are you going to put Stanleys marker in place? Melissa maybe do it on your channel as he was a family member, not a working member???? I think a separate episode would honor Stanley's life?
Unless those sunlight sensitive sunglasses have improved a lot I can tell you that they suck. They respond too slowly and only turn dark if sunlight is actually on them. So if you're in the shade but looking toward sunny areas, they'll remain clear. When they do change state it needs to happen nearly instantly to be of much use, which they don't. Been there, done that.
If you cut split and stacked a 4 x 4 x 8 stack and called it a cord you are giving close to 1 1/4 cords of wood. A true measure of 1 cord is 4 foot long round wood { not even split} by 4 feet high by 8 feet . long. This measure has been established for more than 100 years.
I like your new video today we and my wife are have a son soon
Does the Kubota has to rev that high to work properly?
FROGGY I get to listen to them when I'm upstate hunting
Need to put a 2x4 on top of the rail on trailer kep from hitting and bending top of it
Random thrown cord depending on length, requires 180 to 195 cubic feet.
Very cool bucket Mike! Thanks for showing us! Just got some cool tools over on our place for clearing rock and debris on our land! #stoneyridgefarmer
👍
Hey it was twentyfive seconds less your wife started the stop watch early lol
Great question for Mike What would he do in life if he could not cut wood?
you need a bigger firewood shed to hold all your equipment
The next couple of sheds are for the equipment and the sawmill.
The shed currently housing the equipment is a test drive, but eventually it will be a firewood shed with those extra long pallets. There’s already a sign on the shed stating that.
So says Mr. Mike, Phil Baxter, but only time will tell. 🤣
Is the next shed you build going to be for the Woodmizer?
Question about Mike:
Did he do any extra curricular stuff in High School and how good (or not) of student was he? Has his music taste changed from when he was in school?
The firewood in that trailer is for next year if you wanted it to be fully seasoned, correct?
Ask Mike to do a implement history and what happened to old implements
Along with what he told her they cost. Lol!
Darren at Top Dog Attachments is great to work with. I spoke to him directly when I was interested in getting the Granite Grapple that I ended up buying through Rural King. What an awesome grapple it is too. I'm really wanting to get one of their ballast boxes to test that out as well.
Thank you John, I really appreciate your comment! Also, thank you for your business on the Granite Grapple!
Seems like the guy selling the firewood bucket would want to know how many buckets make a cord as a selling feature before putting it on the market!
"Do you have your phone on you?" Has Melissa ever NOT had her phone?
Good morning again. Haven’t seen any of your intro’s lately. Was really liking them. Have people quit sending them in? Also the ones at the end. Have a great day and God Bless.
We sell firewood bundled and loose like this. We found that you need 28% more in a trailer to get the same amount stacked.
That's a major difference. Thank you for the conversion factor!
just curious...what does a cord of wood go for out there? (I'm in western Colorado) We are usually around $150-300 depending on quality.
Love your outdoor emphasis. Personally can not get enough. Thanks for the channel.
Looks like the land plane is set nose down. SO only the front is cutting. Suggest trying to set it to cut level. But it could be the falling of the ground.
If there had been a Mrs Pennsylvania this year.There's your winner in baby pink!
Mike, some of us are curious about the cost of some equipment you use. Actual cost and lease cost.
Tracy the Trucker from Nampa, Idaho.
Also, vs. what you told Melissa they cost. :-)
How big is the bucket. Just curious as I’m looking at that for the future when I get a loader of some sorts. I’m planning on building wood pile cages instead of stacking save some time as it’s just me with no help. Stacking is extra step I’d like to cut out till I get helping hand for stacking.
I've always wondered why you two don't wear your wedding bands. Pretty personal question, so I understand if you don't want to answer, maybe you don't even have them. I'm thinking it's because you're both so active, you don't want to beat them up with all the work you do outdoors.
Wearing a ring doing work can be dangerous. I had a coworker lose one of his fingers by jumping off a truck, his finger with the ring stayed on the truck.
The main thing about Mike we already know. He is not a east cost sissy.
Yeah I couldn't picture the guy wearing skinny jeans😂😂
Mike - what is your "daily driver" saw that you seem to always grab and take with you out on the trails? Would be interesting for those of us in the market for a new Stihl!
Melissa, I'd like to know why Mike rotates the log cants 180 degrees instead of 90 degrees when he is cutting off the slabwood.
Watching Melissa in those shorts make the video!
Ya babe alert
From NC, wife from PA, new to farming
It's a dam rock bucket not a firewood bucket !
How is Hunter's firewood business going.
Lots of money for a chicken sandwich at BK :-))
Surprised you don't have a tarp on the sawmill? To keep rain off
I've seen a tarp taken off in a previous video!
Nice day there bud how a day 👍🏴🇬🇧🆒👌🏼
You need some oak sideboards for your dump trailer . . Have a Day
Is the Kobota louder than your RK tractor it sounds like it on video?
You better get rid of that blade in the first part of your video that thing is worthless on second note why in the Sam hell would you put stones on topsoil ? That'll be a never-ending process to have a good parking space
One thing I don't see is what do you burn for the homestead vs selling, what is your Homestead storage location vs the Wood stove?
Another great video guys. I remember seeing that big round sitting there for weeks in videos and then it was gone. I’d figured it had been split but I guess not lol. Take care.
Question for Mike:
When are you going to put in a Swimming Pool ? I heard Hunter say he wants a Swimming Pool for his Birthday !! Check out Morgan's off the leash #15
Wish I had 1 of those buckets, I move a lot of firewood around from where I cut and split to the woodshed. Would be better than the dirt bucket. I loved the "I think they already know me" from Mike lmao.
Mike and Melissa love you guys, mornings don’t start here in the thumb of Michigan till i watch your videos. Keep up the hard work
Because just one pair of sun glasses is not enough.
Grill him Melissa during the interview. Ha!!
Pictures of when Mike worked in the field would be nice.
It's possible that one bucket got cut from the video, but it looked like Melissa counted the first 5, and then appeared to only be one more bucket shown appeared not to have any extra in between, so 6 buckets I think.
I think a wedding picture or two would be great for your next video Melissa.
My question to Mike is: How does it feel having outkicked the coverage with a wife like Melissa?
I'm starting the timer NOW, wink, wink. You plenty funny Melissa YEA
Ha ha
Mike is soooo lucky,just saying...
The rock bucket we use is smaller then yours. We put a back on it so the wood doesn't fall out the back and we can get abit more in. We are 10 buckets for a full cord. Using the bucket is the way to go.
Great Stanley story! Love the Top dog bucket! Got mine with a grappler attached! Lotta funn!
when you loading the crates, you could use the bucket and lift the split wood up to a height that would allow you not to have to bent over as much
What model Top Dog bucket is that??
Another great video! Mike, I love your sarcasm Buddy! lol I too would like to see a pic or two of MIke and Melissa when they started dating.
Good video. Congratulations on the radio show!
❤ Lest We Forget, Stanley ❤
I guessed it would take 6 minutes and it would be 7 buckets worth.
Had Melissa not *ripped you off* by starting the stopwatch a minute early....
I would've been right on!!!
:-(
